Greetings to all as I am a "NEW member. I am starting the process of fully restoring a JC Penny's Golden Pinto mini bike and need to know where is the best place to purchase all the parts I will need. It's been long overdue and I am ready to bring back some really exciting memories. Thanks and have a SUPER weekend!!!!

Sorry for not getting back with you Alphabet Soup, just now starting on the mini bike project. I have the JC Penny Foremost Golden Pinto with the Tecumseh 3 HP white motor and black seat. I found the original paperwork on the parts and warranty from 1970!!! I am afraid I am going to run into problems with locating a rear wheel/sprocket assy', chain guard, aluminum scrub brake and rubber brake pedal pad. and so forth. I will try and find what I can.
Well, here is the frame and front forks. The engine, rear shocks, and seat are in a box to inspect once I get the frame sandblasted and primed. I actually want to go with the original color, it looks like some form of metallic green.........I guess I can run it by the automotive paint
store so they can do a color match like a vehicle color. Anyhow, at least I am on the right path to restoring this old mini bike. Well, I can not upload any pictures.......this is the error message I am receiving: "The uploaded file does not have an allowed extension." I will try another day.
